LDLs can diffuse freely through the endothelial barrier of blood vessels and
enter the subendothelial space?
,a. True
b. False Answer - b. False
LDLs:
- Cross the endothelial barrier through receptor-mediated transcytosis
- may also cross the endothelial barrier if paracellular gaps are sufficiently wide
- e.g. Increased permeability during an inflammatory response
a. True
b. False Answer - a. True
Pathogenesis of atherosclerosis? Answer - 1. An injury to the endothelium of
vascular intima triggers the inflammatory process--- cause vasodilation and
increased permeability
2. Increased permeability allows infiltration of immune cells such as
macrophages and circulating LDLs: become modified by oxidation and oxidized
LDLs trigger macrophage phagocytosis
3. Fat-Ladened macrophages (Foam cells) secrete inflammatory mediators and
growth factors:
- Inflammatory mediators recruit more immune cells to the injured site
- Growth factors increase division and migration of smooth muscle cells
4. - Smooth muscle cells produce collagen fibers that form the fibrous cap
- macrophages, foam cells, necrotic tissue with released cholesterol form the
lipid rich necrotic core.
